[Bamboo Knowledge Base]
System level notifications in Bamboo are triggered by a small range of system level events. This means that you don't need to configure these notifications for each plan you are running, as they are applied globally across the Bamboo platform.
You can configure whether notifications are sent for a particular event and who they are sent to. As with plan level notifications, users can choose whether to receive their notifications via email, IM, both or neither, and you can specify different recipients for each type of event notification.
Before you begin:
On this page:
Complete the Event and Recipient type fields using the following table:
Setting | Notes |
---|---|
Event Type | Job Hung — Bamboo will send a notification whenever it determines that one of the plan's job builds has hung, according to the hung job build criteria (read more about configuring your hung job build settings). Use this notification to ensure that the relevant people are informed when a job build becomes unresponsive. |
Job queued without capable agents — Bamboo will send a notification whenever one of the plan's job builds is queued and there are no agents capable of building it. Use this notification to ensure that people are notified when changes to agents adversely affect your job's builds. | |
Job queue timeout —Bamboo will send a notification whenever one of the plan's job builds has been waiting in the queue for longer than the build queue timeout criteria (read more about configuring your job's Build Queue Timeout settings). Use this notification to ensure that the relevant people are informed when a job build is stuck in the build queue for too long. | |
Recipient Type | User — Enter the username of the appropriate Bamboo user, or click the icon to select from a list of users. |
Hipchat — Enter the Hipchat API Token and Room Name. See Integrating Bamboo with HipChat for more information. | |
Group — Enter the name of the appropriateBamboo group(s). | |
